Beijing, one of the most populous and bustling cities in the world, is directly under the control of the Central Government and also China's capital. This city enjoys a long and interesting history, which is readily apparent in the many historic and cultural attractions the city houses---after all, the Jin, Yuan, Ming, and Qing all set up their capitals in Beijing. Guests will surely be impressed by the integration of traditional culture and breakneck modernization that has taken the grip of the city---hutong courtyard complexes stand next to impressive skyscrapers.
China's rapid economic expansion has also revolutionized the food in Beijing. The city enjoys a host of foods coming from various regions in China and the world, including the well-known Roast Duck, the gourmet Imperial Court Cuisine, flavored Mongolia Hotpot and hundreds of local snacks. It is a hub of communications, with good railroad and air links with all parts of China, as well as with major cities of the world, thus facilitating the rapid development of tourism as an important industry in Beijing. Today, Beijing is becoming a sparkling metropolis with modern skyscrapers, shopping malls, efficient transport routes and numerous foreign investment enterprises. The near future is dominated by the Olympic Games, which will be hosted in Beijing in 2008.
